a.

Summary Introduction

To describe: Chlorosis.

Introduction: The term chlorosis is originated from the Greek word Khloros, which means pale green or greenish yellow color. Chlorosis is the insufficient green pigmentation on leaves. This may lead to carbohydrate production hindrance, plant nutrition intervenes, and it may eventually result in plant death.

b.

Summary Introduction

To mention: The first probable place in the plant where one can see the deficiency of an immobile element.

Introduction: Mobile and immobile nutrients indicate the transportability of essential nutrients within the plants. Nitrogen (N) as nitrate, potassium (K), phosphorous (P) as phosphate, molybdenum (Mo), zinc (Zn), and chlorine (Cl) are mobile nutrients. Sulfur (S), calcium (Ca), boron (B), iron (Fe), and copper (Cu) are examples of immobile nutrients.
